This book brought the drama and steamy romance on a level that I wish more books did, and I was completely about it.

This book was such a fun read, and I fell in love with the romantic-comedy that Lina and Max embodied. Lina Santos is a wedding planner who was dumped at the altar, and she did not let it stop her. What I loved about Lina was her hardworking attitude and how she never gave up. […]

[Alexandra’s Review] Love Her or Lose Her by Tessa Bailey

Holy wow this was an amazing book! Rarely I see a book about an already married couple and the trials they have to face as time passes and they also face their own insecurities. As Tessa Bailey mentions in her Acknowledgments, she was inspired by her own life, adding in her amazing talent in crafting […]

[Rachel’s Review]: All-American Muslim Girl by Nadine Jolie Courtney

There are very few books that actually make me cry at the end but this is definitely one of them. All-American Muslim Girl is equal parts heart-wrenching and heartwarming and has such an important message for the current political climate: acceptance. Acceptance of oneself, one’s religion and one’s culture. Allie’s exploration of her faith and […]
